Shrimali Abacus Academy Tower Chouraha

At Tower Chourah, we have another spot for Shrimali Abacus Academy. This might be one of the busiest intersections in the area. Being right at the chouraha means there is never a dull moment outside. We have a small sign, but most people find us because they live or work nearby. The room we use is basic. We have long tables where the kids sit with their abacus frames. It is a lot of clicking sounds as the beads move up and down. We have to keep the windows shut sometimes to block out the noise from the traffic at the tower. It is a functional space, nothing more. We have a few fans that hum along while we work. The light coming in from the street is usually quite bright. We don't follow a strict corporate schedule; we just open up when it is time for the kids to arrive. Many of them come straight from their schools. We spend a lot of time correcting mistakes and showing the right way to move the beads. It is a repetitive job, but seeing the progress is good. We usually close up once the sun goes down and the traffic at the chouraha starts to peak again. It is a very standard local business. No frills, just a place to learn. We have been here for a while and the locals know us.
